[image: forum2014cactus] <http://www.ala.org/lita/conferences/forum/2014>The
special student registration rate to the 2014 LITA National Forum
<http://www.ala.org/lita/conferences/forum/2014> has been extended through
Monday October 6th, 2014.  The Forum will be held November 5-8, 2014
at the Hotel
Albuquerque <http://www.hotelabq.com/> in Albuquerque, NM. Learn more about
the Forum here. <http://www.ala.org/lita/conferences/forum/2014>

This special rate is intended for a limited number of graduate students
enrolled in ALA accredited programs. In exchange for a discounted
registration, students will assist the LITA organizers and the Forum
presenters with on-site operations. This year’s theme is “Transformation:
>From Node to Network.” We are anticipating an attendance of 300 decision
makers and implementers of new information technologies in libraries.

The selected students will be expected to attend the full LITA National
Forum, Thursday noon through Saturday noon. This does not include the
pre-conferences on Thursday and Friday. You will be assigned a variety of
duties, but you will be able to attend the Forum programs, which include 3
keynote sessions, 30 concurrent sessions, and a dozen poster presentations.

The special student rate is $180 – half the regular registration rate for
LITA members. This rate includes a Friday night reception at the hotel,
continental breakfasts, and Saturday lunch. To get this rate you must apply
and be accepted per below.
